Body shaping without the yo-yo effect

FINALLY the sun is out and for many that means body confidence and weight loss is back at the top of the to-do list.

There are more and more fad diets out there promising impressive results in just a short time, but the joy of losing a few kilos is short-lived as many of these diets tend to be a mere quick-fix. More importantly, crash dieting can have long-term negative effects on the reduction of body fat.

“A healthy and regular nutrition plan, tailored to each individual’s daily routine, is the basis behind targeting hormones in the body to burn fat, hold on to lean muscle tissue and tighten skin,” explains Gemma Wilkins, owner of the Henley Hypoxi studio. “If a person’s body has already undergone countless diets and fasting cures, it is less susceptible to further weight loss. Also, frequent dieters tend towards growing insecurities and dieting errors, and their quality of life suffers as a result.”

This is why personal consulting services and supervision make up the core element of the Hypoxi method, which helps men and women target their weight loss in problem zones.

“Many customers who opt for this method first have to relearn how the body works and adopt an eating plan to ensure the ‘fat burning hormones’ are back on track,” said Gemma.

To activate the metabolism, the Hypoxi method applies an innovative combination of compression and vacuum therapy with a moderate exercise programme to burn fat.

The alternating pressure targets the problem zones — hips, stomach, bum and thighs — stimulating circulation in parts of the body where this is usually poor. Fatty acids from these areas are therefore shuttled off and burnt more readily and effectively by the circulatory system.

Four different Hypoxi devices offer a unique and natural treatment for each problem area.

After one to two months of Hypoxi training with three 30-minute units per week, there is not only a lasting reduction in the size of the problem areas, but the connective tissue is also strengthened, the skin is tighter and cellulite is reduced considerably.

So whether you want to slim for a special occasion or holiday, lose excess stubborn fat, reduce inches or improve your skin appearance and body confidence, call to arrange a free trial session with no obligation.

lSun damage is proven to be the number one sign of ageing, so how do we improve a sun damaged skin and stop it from getting worse?

A trip to the Orchard Rooms to see Hannah Orchard is the best place to start. Hannah is a Harley Street trained aesthetic nurse prescriber and has worked with some of the world’s top cosmetic and reconstructive surgeons.

The best anti-ageing advice, says Hannah, is to start early. “Prevention is always better than cure. If you look after your skin’s health from the age of 30 you will reap the rewards in your forties and fifties,” she said.

Hannah is currently offering clients two free treatments when they buy four. To take up this offer or for more information call (01491) 598287 or visit her website www.theorchardrooms.com
